Welcome to the Sea Turtles' Egypt Project Wikispace!
This wikispace will be a collaborative effort shared by all members of the Sea Turtles at Dartmouth. It will be a chance for you to share resources about Egypt as you research projects throughout our unit of study.
As you discover interesting websites or books about pyramids and more, please share your new knowledge with the rest of the team by posting the information here.

Here are a couple of helpful hints to get you started using our wikispace:
When you want to add information, you need to first click on "Edit This Page" so that you can make changes or additions. Then follow the directions below to add website links, book titles, or images.
Websites
1. When adding a link to a website, use the hyperlink button above (it looks like a globe with a link).
2. A pop-up dialog box will ask you for "Link Text". Type the name of the website (make it short).
3. Click on "External Link" and type in the exact web address for the link. It's easiest to copy the address bar and paste it in here.
4. Click OK.
5. Type a one or two sentence summary explaining what a reader will find on the page. Include your name at the end of the summary.
Books
1. After clicking on "Edit This Page", simply type the book title and author on the appropriate section of the page.
2. Add information about where the book is available (DMS library, public library, Mrs. Mullaly, bookstore, etc.).
3. If you have a copy of the book and are willing to share, let people know.
4. Add a one or two sentence summary explaining what a reader will find in the book.
Images
1. You can add pictures or clip art to the page by clicking the image button next to the hyperlink buttons (it looks like a tree).
2. An easy to use dialog box will pop up, letting you upload an image or use an external link (what most of you will want to do).
3. After putting the picture on the page, you can type a short caption explaining what the reader is seeing.
3. Please resize your picture so that it is not too big. This can be done by clicking in the upper right hand corner of the image.
When you have finished your entry, remember to click the Save button in the upper right hand corner.
Have fun being a researcher and author. You're on the web!
